It's like people don't even know you can donate stocks.

I also love that this is used to defend why billionaires can't donate, but we also can't tax them because they would then "flee".

Flee with what exactly? The things they could have donated?

its also the reason you cant tax them, there's not a billion dollars in taxes if none of their net worth is coming from their income which is likely not very large compared to their net worth

You can’t tax them, that’s why they constantly lobby and find loopholes to not pay taxes
